In the event that Ouiflow indicates to the Customer a work schedule, it is provisional and takes into account in particular:
- a Customer response time of less than 2 working days to all agency emails
- a maximum of 3 round trips on functional models and graphic models. In addition, any delay in the delivery of content compared to the schedule initially set orally or in writing will have an impact on the overall duration of the project.
The Customer will not be able to report a delay in delivery if the contents have not been delivered in their entirety within the deadlines initially planned.
Regarding the creation of websites
Domain names
Ouiflow does not carry out any verification on the legality of the domain names entrusted to it and the Customer certifies that it owns the rights (brand, etc.) necessary for the purchase and management of the domain name (s).
The Customer is the owner of the domain name reserved for him, Ouiflow acting only as a technical intermediary with naming organizations.
The Customer acknowledges registering and using the domain name in accordance with the legislation in force and the legal rights of third parties. Ouiflow cannot be held responsible for the non-availability of a domain name ordered.
Specifications
In order to successfully carry out the projects, the Customer must send precise and exhaustive technical specifications to Ouiflow. On this basis, Ouiflow will draw up an estimate that will become the reference document for conducting the project. The elements that would have been mentioned in the expression of need, the specifications or orally and that would not be mentioned explicitly in the estimate are not included in the scope of the project. In the absence of details in the quotation, Ouiflow will make technical and functional choices according to its experience, without these being contested by the Customer.
Graphic mockups
Whenever necessary, Ouiflow will submit to the Customer “mock-ups” of the achievements to be provided showing the visual aspect of these. The models will be made using the time provided in the estimate, with a maximum of 3 iterations per model, unless otherwise specified in the estimate. In the event of additional iterations, an additional quotation will be established by Ouiflow, subject to acceptance by the Customer. In the event of refusal of the additional estimate, the work will continue on the basis of the validation by the Customer of one of the versions of the models already produced. After acceptance by the Customer of the models (by e-mail), any request for modification of the visual aspect of the projects concerned will be the subject of an additional estimate, subject to the acceptance of the Customer. In case of refusal of the additional estimate, the work will continue on the basis of the first validation by the Customer.
Validation and amendment to the contract
If for any reason, the Customer, during the execution of the contract, validates work carried out by Ouiflow (by telephone or e-mail) and later changes its decision, such a request or objection would lead Ouiflow to draw up an additional estimate for the additional work involved, subject to acceptance by the Customer. In case of refusal of the additional estimate, the work will continue on the basis of the first validation by the Customer. If for any reason, the Customer makes a new request during the execution of the contract that does not comply with the specifications or an objection calling into question the work already carried out, such a request or objection would lead Ouiflow to draw up an additional estimate, subject to acceptance by the Customer. If the additional estimate is refused, the work will continue on the basis of the originally planned scope.
